I've squared up with John Appel. If anyone can pick up the HMMWV wheel for delivery to RC, please let me know. I'd appreciate it.
Thx

I'll be going down there in a few weeks to get a wheel from him but I won't be able able to make it to the rally I don't think. I'm not far from Rausch though

how hard are the trails that we would go on ? im just worried about getting back home in one peace.
No problem in a CUCV. We generally stick to the green trails. There are obstacles you can play on along the way, big rocks and windshield deep mud, but we run trails that allow everyone to ride along. We hit some blues from time to time. We have had wreckers, M109 box trucks and a LWB M36 with a shipping container out. CUCVs work great.

I'll definetly be there Friday and trailriding Saturday and Sunday with the M1031 maintenance truck. Maybe all the snow will be gone by then. Will most likely have 2 or 3 other cilvian vehicles going too. Leaving Newark area on 78 sometime Friday afternoon if anyone wants to join the convoy.

OK I want to go but I have a slight problem, my m1008 now has a plow frame is doesnt hang no lower than the dana 60 in the front and I only remember getting caught on two rocks with the 14 bolt. Think it will be ok with the plow frame? If you think Ill be fine Im in and probably a buddy with a lifted m1009.
this is the frame

Stay on the main trails, and you'll be fine. We run basic green trails that really any stock 4wd vehicle can do. Sometimes there are offchutes or harder lines to run, but there is always a nice easy bypass on anything that may seem sketchy for some.

All fires must be in the fire pits supplied by Rausch Creek. Grills are Ok.

So you can't bring your own firepit? My "firepit" doubles as my grill and vise versa

Then that might be okay, it's a grey area I guess.
That HEMMT would fit down the main trails, where we hang out anyways, so bring it! Love to see that beast at RC....

If it's burning wood Rausch Creek won't like it. Charcoal would be ok.
Edit: Charcoal demonstrated that is for cooking would be ok.
